Senator John Thune, the chambers No. 3 Republican, said the repeal of the ACA individual mandate will be included in the revised version of the Senate GOP tax plan.
The tax bill the House rolled out today would cap mortgage-interest deductions, tax large university endowments, but includes 'no changes' to 401(k) plans.
Congresss non-partisan scorekeeper didnt find any big savings for the U.S government in a Senate bill designed to stabilize Obamacare, but the reason for that is a technicality.
The Senate adopted a fiscal 2018 budget resolution Thursday that House GOP leaders agreed to accept, a show of unity aimed at speeding consideration of President Donald Trumps plan to enact tax cuts.
The Trump administration was sending conflicting signals about the pact reached by senators Lamar Alexander and Patty Murray, which also faces ambivalence from some Republican senators and outright hostility from many House Republicans.
Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell has already said he expects the Republican-led Congress to largely ignore the proposal.
